new dutch label with its roots in the west coast italo disco scene. teaming up with long time buddy fred ventura sfera celeste project combines the melancholy of vintage italo disco with the black funk of man parrish and the mysterious atmosphere that good new wave used to have. pretty essential and highly limited (480 hand numbered copies) for the real heads. these guys come in the tradition of the earliest electronic dance music and show their love for man and machine. interesting new label and desirable first release!

excellent dj bang 2010 edits !!! disco , disco , d-i-s-c-o!!

two more missives from the leng stable, a stable basking in late afternoon sunshine the whole year round. here we have two remixes of cantoma tracks. on side a is ray mangs remix of under the stars a subtle disco groove, with a sweet rolling bass and a languid horn line that gently eases into the back of your mind, luring you into a hypnotic swirl. over on side-b lexx steps up to deliver an equally stunning take on gambara immdediately setting out a more electronic lilt, the track steadily builds into a mid tempo throb as the vocals wash over proceedings, while flute and acoustic guitar make way for each other in the melody stakes. timeless sounds on both sides evoking the summer just passed

second part of the dark star volume 5 series.

dark stars series returns with vol 5 and some seriously big names

roma meets running back. final frontier/pigna/nature bossman, terrific producer, italian true school techno ledge and celebrated pasta boy marco passarani delivers new original material since his brilliant statostasi ep. the first one of a two part 12-inch series (no shit!) is walking in the shoes of the future while wearing the fine cut trousers of the past. here you you get it all, dear earthlings: science-fiction marathon tech-house, male martian mirror balls and sh-303 female robot acid. bassarani in your face! watch out for colliding stars pt. 2. limited to 500 copies in a retro-futuristic telescopic picture sleeve with even enough room to slip in the second platter (coming sooner or later to a theatre near you)!

steve lawler, luciano, carol cox, mandy, loco dice, ricardo villalobos, tiefschwarz matthias tanzmann and many more are all fans of leons work, so its not hard to see why people are already talking about him as a future star. leons remix for tim greens >iotan< (if-18) was already a bomb and now he delivered us to heavy house tracks which are just insane. >stars< and >corner of love< will def be played over the whole summer. on top of that we are pleased to release a yousef remix of >stars< as well.

>it began in africa< is a funky bigbeat mix by norman cook aka fatboy slim.

yet more sublime grooves from this top notch tech house label.

part 3 of the dark stars series, featuring tracks by kruse & nuernberg, uglh & federico locchi, sabb and mark mendes.

back in 1998 this was probably just about the wrongest record you had ever heard … and it has to be said that not much has changed. forshaw has a knack of turning out ridiculously hard and mangled electro and techno tracks – but still managing to make them sound >poppy<. sometimes, as in the case of rockford for example, it is because he uses well recognisable (but unexpected) samples. but more often it is just because he manages to make tunes (no matter how hard) that make you stop gurning and start smiling.

return to form (take that, haters!) hits at the body repeatedly, slamming away with a lack of abandon and a new sense of protocol. major stars are known for being psychedelic rock journeymen (and journey lovin women), but of late, their rocks psych roots seem to be dyed platinum white, with a truckers cap shoved on top of the whole mess. its jukebox ready hard rock with a hallucinogenic edge, sure ? or perhaps its just the impact of their triple guitar git down, causing your head to throb with concussive force? dont worry, long time star children ? these guys still jam, but they ve got short numbers too, and wailing, roadhouse vocals sailing over the punch ups. a terrific variety, but a return to form? pffft! what form? these guys have been in plasma state forever! whatever form it takes, thats what it is. and major stars are presently shining on in white dwarf style ? compacted, but with a violent gleam.

a devastating 4 track ep of techno club anthems. as always with yin yang only the best tracks will do.

as the title of their new full length recording suggests, green concorde is moving, and moving fast. the direction is one and one only: out!
be it from the dark star palm trees of miami, from the silvercoated buildings in the city of glass or from the claustrophobic humidity of their now abandoned rehearsal room in copenhagen, this outfit is running for safety. out where the stars look like arrows on fire. as they move, green concorde stays true to their pulsating post-punk brand, though some of the sounds characteristic noise has been distilled and filtered, leaving a more soft and atmospheric expression than the one characterizing their previous album, ten cities. and unlike ten cities, this album is not a result of hours spent in a cold rehearsal room in a humid basement. instead the nine songs were written under intimate and private forms, partly in the bandmembers own appartments in copenhagen, partly in a small cottage in the dark outskirts of denmark. the run has begun. are you ready to follow green concorde down the corridor, to the exit, through the gates, out into safety?

a slab of latin-tinged breakbeat coolness from the surferest dude on the spanish underground scene. try not to move that behind when the man from zarautz starts doing his thing, we dare you! the b-side is a quite aptly titled tune which combines a cab callowayesque ditty with a tasty hip-hop beat, thus spreading the buen rollo as they say in spain. mr. scruff, anyone?

epischer techno, angelegt als reise mit kristallklaren momenten der erleuchtung, denen deepe, pumpende basslines zugrunde liegen. unbedingte kaufempfehlung

after the successful previous singles (oasis and waterfall) out of his debut music man album >escapements<, here is the brand new successor >sparkling stars<, again an amazing, strong and original techno track from the croatian artist. it is backed up on the flip with a remix from gavin russom, who delivered the legendary masterpiece >the days of mars< on dfa recordings together with delia gonzalez a couple of years agao. an essential release, again!!!

the fourth and final installment in the catz n dogz vinyl series has saved the best for last. sunset in the east is an epic opus, gradually unfolding in a cascade of warm toms, luxuriant ride cymbals, and assured sax stabs from their talented guests from dop. each new phrase ushers a fresh set of sonic delights into the frame, peaking with exultant proclamations from the saxophones. on the flip side, the white-hot guillaume & the coutu dumonts remix distills the track into the purest, most primal house music imaginable. his arrangement deftly remolds the sax sections to suit the tracks grand progression, gloriously blurring the lines between percussion and instrumentation

the third installment in the catz n dogz vinyl series is a showcase for two standout songs off their album stars of zoo. >sf< is a throwback to classic house tracks, with a modern twist - a playground full of joyous children have invaded its sly, bongo-laden grooves. yet these precocious youngsters are only part of the story – the beats insistent and ever-changing swing never lets up for more than a couple of moments. >2< is more ominous but no less effective. its primary percussion enters like springs filling up an echo chamber, gradually morphing into several competing themes that weave together throughout the track. 2s bass is a serious force, creating a physical presence that must be heard on a large system to be believed!

omanko is the only word that is unmentionable in japanese media and public speech. its also the next single from catz n dogz - a strange hybird of cinematic swells, quirky natural drums and popping guitar plucks. its unorthodox groove builds relentlessly, anchored by a shouting chorus and warm bass bubbles that swell from the depths like some massive ancient sea creature. they take their time building to the climax, finishing the track with late-entering keyboard theme that quickly swirls into a frenzy. perfect for tipping that peaktime crowd over the edge! the italoboyz remix completely remolds the groove to fit their distinctive vision, seamlessly integrating shards from the original into their tension-fuelled agenda. breakdowns of varying sizes dominate the sonic landscape, as their annihilating kick plays hide and seek with the strings throughout the track. finally, all the elements are reunited by the echo-drenched vocal line and percussive baritone sax stabs – a satisfying finale to this latenight masterpiece.

bangin techno, 4 track ep !!

played by: from disco to jazz and funk, italians have acquired a solid reputation in the making of dance music along the years. those last months seing them firmly back on the blocks, some 20 years after the worldwide domination of the so called spaghetti house!!! what is it then to expect on this 3 tracker? lectrodeep post-disco such as delivered by marcoradi on firefly? abstract phonky house on the shot by upcoming producer mr mama?? synth led deep n sharp tech influenced vibes on the fascinating hidden diva by the likes of tresca aka pastaboys??? who cares as long as its good. and it definitely is...

over the past few years john tejada has been splitting his time working with long time collaborator arian leviste and more recent collaborator justin maxwell. why not combine all 3? palette all-stars is just that. a collaboration between the 3 main palette artists, each (tejada, leviste and maxwell) playing a particular role in each song. from the ep opener, >after school special< you get a sense of the trio each working on a particular element. tejada’s driving drums, maxwell’s modular synth work, and leviste’s bassline elements sculpt a driving track with a classic feel. >the pilot< features leviste’s smooth melodic synth work while maxwell processes through the modular and tejada privides the dubby beats. the ep finisher >downtown hotel< features a mad maxwell modular freakout and driving 808 s
